Dog Days

Hot, humid, yucky, wet, etc.  Why are these the "dog days?"  I mean, I am a dog, or at least partly dog.  What have these days to do with me?  I don't like them.  I don't know any dogs who like them, although, to be honest, I do not know many dogs.  Maybe these dogs like the "dog days."  I have no way of knowing in my limited experience.  I think they are more appropriately called "wasp days" or "fly days."  I notice a lot of these creatures flying around.  I don't like them much.  I like them even less than the "dog days."

P.S.  The picture above depicts me in deep thought and also shows my waterfall ears to great advantage.  Thought it would be nice to share.

It's not about you, per se. It's referring to a big star in Canis Major, which is,admittedly, a picture of a dog in the sky. That silly dog only appears in the sky in August!

Love your waterfall ears. Are they hard to maintain?

We find him strangely intriguing but they won't let us at him. I think they just want to torment us. Life sucks. One of these days me and Bob are going to get him.

This is the sink we hid under last week.
